[Jmol-users] stopping scripts

[Pshemak M. <ny...@ps...>]

It looks like my previous post got lost:

To showcase a crystal structure we have a longish "tour" script composed of several moveto, rotate, adding and removing labels, changing translucency (stepwise), etc. Our "Tour" button starts the cript and toggles to Stop.  Unfortunately we are not able to stop the tour.

With set waitForMoveTo False, moveto Stop does work (stops in the middle of moveto), but only if the moveto is the last command in the script (no other commands after it).

Rotate (for example rotate 360 -6) does not stop as implied inhttp://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/?ver=14.2#rotate   (under x.x y.y).
A separate "spin off" seems to be needed, Again, it works if moveto/rotate are at the end of the script.

However, if there are other commands after moveto or rotate (for example adjusting translucency or adding labels) the script does not stop, it continues till the end, even if quit or exit are included.

Additionally, when we use !exit or !quit we are getting:  "script compiler ERROR: command expected" (version 14.3.14_2015.06.10c) when the script is finished running.

Any suggestions on how to effectively stop unfinished scripts would be appreciated,
